Job 24:17-19

Expanded Bible

¹⁸ “·They [The wicked] are ·like foam floating [or like scum; ^Lquick] on the water.
    Their ·part of the land [lot; portion] is cursed;
    no one ·uses the road that goes by [^Lturns toward] their vineyards. [^CThis seems to contradict Job’s contention that the wicked escape judgment. Perhaps these are his opponents’ views, or his wish.]
¹⁹ As ·heat and dryness [the desert and heat] ·quickly melt the snow [^Lsteal away the snow waters],
    so ·the grave [^LSheol] quickly takes away the sinners.
